I need help with cooking hash brownies.

After some more research, I found my answer. Not 1 cannabutter recipe mentions it on here. I thank myself lol:hippy:

Alright, just let me know if I've got this straight: I grind up 5 grams of hash and put it aside, i then turn on a hot plate and melt the butter, i then add the hash in carefully and i let it sit there for about 20 minutes untill it's nice and brown, I then pour it through a coffee filter or something and there's my butter. I then mix the cannabutter with the brownie mix, put it in the oven and wait untill it's done. Did i get that right? Please correct any mistakes I've mentioned. My Rating: 5

Huh? You answered the original poster with good info. However you didn't tell me how to strain cannabutter without a cheesecloth. What's so hard to understand? You're not taking up my time with nonsense. It would just be nice to not be ignored.:thumbsup::hippy:

apparently, 37 C as posted previous. sorry i couldnt give you a number, but so many things contribute to boiling points, its kind of trial and error. do you own a double boiler? because that would be best, one pot with boiling water on the stove, another pot that fits into the top of it that you put your butter in. the hot water melts the butter without boiling anything! perfect. and don't worry about the straining if youre using hash, it doesnt need to be strained. only if you have chunks of weed in it. i think you could consider steaming without boiling a good temp.

If i do the double boiling thing, the water in the first bowl needs to be boiling? how many degrees aproximately?

sorry guy (fourtwenty), i misunderstood. i made mine without cheesecloth once, i used a metal mesh coffee filter. the holes were big enough to let the butter through though, whereas a paper filter wouldnt work. you can get cheesecloth at most grocery stores, and i've seen many dollar stores that carry it. other than that, i've searched the internet and have not found anything that works as well as the cloth.

DannyR: a double boiler is an actual thing. you buy the two metal pots together, they fit into eachother. you won't have much luck trying to get two different pots to work, unless you can macgyver something. if you DO have a double boiler, the water in the lower pot can be as hot as you want. i don't believe it transfers enough heat to boil the top pot, it just gets it to the right temp. sorry i cant be more specific, you might have some luck googling that one.

I read a white cotton t shirt works fine, what do you think?

A paper coffee filter DOES work, I did it a few weeks ago but you really have to squeeze and force everything through. The butter came out great but a little weak.

alright, I only have one more question then, actually it's two.

1.how long do i have to keep the butter and the hash on the hot plate before I can start thinking about taking it off? I know that I'm supposed to keep it on there untill it turns brown but I would feel a lot safer if I knew aproximately how long I'm supposed to be doing that.

2.also, I'm only using 5 grams in my recipe, take that into consideration while answering question number 1. question number 2 is: what kind of butter should I use?

OK 1 more time

you dont have to filter hash .....only weed... melt the butter at 37 C add the hash make sure you have 1/3 cup of butter or alittle more.

Add the hash to the melted butter....the hash will melt in the butter.... add to the brownie mix inplace of the vegetable oil
